    Ive never planted a food plot, and honestly, wouldn't know where to start. I do want to get into it though.

    What are the basic tools I need to get started? I have a fourwheeler and thats about it.

    Whats the best thing for a beginner to plant? What kind of fertilizer and minerals and such do I need? When do I plant?

    Is there any good websites,books,etc on food plots?

    How do I utilize food plots for bowhunting?

    Im a complete newbie on the subject.
